Of course. Simply cook your waffles accordingly, and lay them out on a baking rack and allow them to fully cool. Once cooled, then transfer to a cookie sheet, and toss in the freezer for around 15-20 minutes. Once they have hardened up, transfer to a freezer bag, and store that way.
You can freeze waffles for up to three months. This is a great way to prep for those hectic mornings where you don’t have time to cook. Pull out your tasty and perfect waffles and reheat and enjoy. No need to make a waffle batter and cook, just reheat.

Biggest Secret To The Perfect Waffle
One of the biggest tips is to allow your waffle batter to have a five-minute rest before you start cooking. This will help to give you that light and fluffy texture you want for in a waffle. It will help the ingredients blend and build up so it is the perfect thickness for making your homemade waffles.
Tip For Batch Cooking Waffles For A Crowd
Waffles are great but it is hard when you need to make a ton to feed a crowd. Some waffles end up cold, and others are fresh off the griddle. One tip I learned years ago, is to turn your oven on to 195 degrees and whip them up, and then lay it right on the racks in the oven.
If you place them on a cookie sheet, they will get soft as the moisture builds. But laying them straight on the oven rack will be a nice way to keep them warm before you are ready to serve.
